Yeah i’ll try using the chicken and I have some spare bricks that I’ll use to secure it. The area I have them in right now is pretty muddy, they’re enjoying it so far. Here’s a picture of what their set up looks like. -

Thanks you! Yeah i’m in the northeast in the suburbs. This is some helpful advice because I was wondering if there were some preventative measures I could implement to deter predators. What would you recommend for the bottom two feet, some hardware cloth? -

5 week old runner ducks first night outside in their coop, is light necessary for them to drink their water and eat their feed. If so what kind of light would you recommend, a flashlight or something that plugs in? Thanks!
